When I moved back to Australia, with my second wife, I had to buy a
house and furnish it.  I said to her, "I can get some second-hand
things cheaply, as I have always had second-hand cars, houses,
furniture, wives..." and then she hit me!  Changing my description
from "second-hand" to "pre-loved" didn't help at all. Which is why I
had to buy a new fridge and stove.

           Secondary Edible Parts of
           Vegetables
 
  The culinary reputation of most vegetables is based primarily on the
  edible qualities of one or sometimes two primary parts of the plant.
  For home gardeners who grow and have the entire vegetable plant at
  their disposal, other plant parts may be edible.
  
  Although many of the secondary plant parts are edible, their
  popularity as food items is diminished by lack of proper flavor or
  unfavorable texture. For example, the leaves of practically all the
  cabbage family are edible, but the strong flavors of some species are
  disagreeable or too strong for most people's taste.
  
  The edible leaves and stem tips of sweet potato vines are well known
  in many parts of the world. Often considered a poor man's food, sweet
  potato foliage has a rich protein content that helps supplement the
  nutritional value of the roots.
  
  Quite often, cooking is necessary to make the parts edible. Raw leaves
  eaten fresh may even be slightly poisonous in some cases.
